Yarns of a Dream

Come, let us go to dark green forests deep
where death is no more terrible than sleep;

where life is without labor, care or pain,
no one gets sick, grows old or dies in vain;

where honey drips from trees, tame game abound,
there's singing, dancing, loving all year round;

where the boughs droop, burdened by luscious fruits
and grassy grounds burst with succulent roots;

lay down beside me by this sighing stream,
let's spin yarns for trapestries of our dream.
